1. INTRODUCTION The business environment in Egypt is witnessing an evolution in the various branches of industry at large. Modern technologies involving multidisciplinary engineering areas together with varieties of production equipment are brought to use in the various sectors of national industry. Such industries comprise the chemical, processing, manufacturing, engineering, oil and gas, building and construction industries, to name just a few. All these industrial sectors utilize common, specialized, and hightech equipment for power transmission, production and manufacture. Thus, a growing need is anticipated for qualified "Mechatronics Engineers" with knowledge and skills enabling utilization of modern tools of engineering analysis and design. Mechatronics is an interdisciplinary field aims at the synergistic integration of mechanics, electronics, control theory, and computer science within product design and manufacturing, in order to improve and/or optimize its functionality. A B.Sc. degree in mechatronics engineering is offered for students who seek careers as engineers in industry, army, consulting firms and private and governmental agencies. This degree is also appropriate for students who plan to be researchers or who intend to pursue an advanced degree in engineering. A typical program curriculum incorporates analytical tools, creative thought and diversity of skills as well as the state of art of the profession. Mechatronics engineer may work in: Private and governmental firms, where it is required to design, manufacture, operate, develop or maintain mechanical systems and equipment such as; industrial machinery, automotive, aerospace, power generation and air conditioning equipment. Experience has shown that imported equipment could suffer unexpected failures during service. The "Mechatronics Engineer" should be the one who could foresee potential areas of concern, especially in the long term, thus the one who could provide an

expert opinion before acquiring such equipment. A mechatronics engineer unites the principles of mechanics, electronics, and computing to generate a simpler, more economical and reliable system. Mechatronics Engineering graduates should be capable of handling tasks related to product design and development. "Made in Egypt" parts and equipment ought to progressively take a fair share of the inventory, not only to save on initial cost, but also to provide the capability of providing fast, independent and inexpensive remedy of one's own faults. Recent success stories in national industrial development in countries like Ireland, Finland, Singapore, Malaysia, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand showed that enhancement of higher engineering education has contributed significantly to modernization of industries in the above countries. Of key importance in this regard, is the capability of engineers and scientists to comprehend modern technologies and hence enable local generation of industrial knowledge. "Mechatronics Engineers" are expected to be at the forefront of the national Egyptian effort to localize technology development and hence increase the national share in production of global industrial knowledge. As the country is embarking on ambitious plans of industrial development, it is natural that, a common effort is initiated by universities and government authoritiesto develop human resources in the field of engineering design. Incentives should be devised to attract students of high caliber, who could be promising in acquiring innovative and creative capabilities in such difficult engineering studies. This can be achieved by providing study grants that are linked to student performance during the course of his/her study. The foregoing brief should highlight the expected growth in the job market need for mechatronics engineersof caliber. Therefore, the Faculty of Engineering at Fayoum University is proposing the

6. SAMPLE STUDY PLAN and PROGRAM DETAILS The tables below present a sample study plan spread over 10 main semesters. Since the program is credit hours based curriculum, the student does not have to take the courses during the semester indicated as long as prerequisites of a particular course are satisfied. The curriculum gives the student the opportunity to select courses from a number of electives. Moreover, the curriculum gives the students the opportunity to interact with industry and government agencies through two practical training summer courses. Due to adoption of 2/3 contact hours for each one hour of tutorials or laboratory work, the total number of contact hours of the degree is about 304 contact hours, which will be used to enhance the students understanding and practicing of all sciences.
